[QUOTE="RDFF, post: 1822308, member: 39018"] I assume that the float control tank is just up the hill (to achieve the same height level-wise) as the tire tank itself. I've thought of that, but then how to keep the tire tank open... I guess you could put that needle valve connected to a separate (and very small) pipe that runs over into the floor of the tire tank, so THAT can always be pushing a little water into the tire tank in winter... and then put the PVC overflow drain in like I did to take away the excess to keep it from running over. Virginia isn't as cold as Minnesota though... We'd have to have the valve tank underground about 4' to keep it from freezing... but I like the idea of not having the plumbing works where the cattle have access to it! [/QUOTE]
